12-13 Winnipeg Jets Training Camp Thread

[Guerzy]

So... anybody following camp closely enough to predict the lines? I'm working on the Sens GDT. Or are Holden's pretty close to what you all think they'll look like?

My best guess -

Ladd - Little - Wheeler
Kane - Jokinen - Wellwood
Ponikarovsky - Antropov - Burmistrov
Machacek/Peluso - Slater Thorburn

Enstrom - Byfuglien
Hainsey - Stuart
Clitsome - Postma

Pavelec

If Antro is healthy I would predict

Ladd Little Wheeler
Kane Jokinen Wellwood
Poni Antro Burmi
Macho Slater Thorburn

Enstrom Buff
Stuart Hainsey (wish Stuie wasn't here but I think he will be)
Clitsome Postma/Redmond

Pavs

Pavelec

Looks pretty close
Rumor has it (according to hustler of h&l fame) it looked likely scheifele will draw in centering the 4th line Saturday.

Which i personally disagree with
Should be playing top 6 minutes (if earned) or back to junior imo

Pavelec

If Scheifele isn't sent back to Barrie, he will be in the lineup somewhere. There is no way they are going to keep him up to sit in the press box.

.. Geez, forgot Scheifele!

If Scheifele is on the 4th line thats unfortunate. Which then begs the question, who goes to the 4th line? This will be interesting.

Weird snuck through the five hole on my as well "ya know"

It all comes down to Antro......Mark centers the 3rd line if Antro can't go IMHO.....other than that I guess they toss him on the 4th line if Antro is playing?

I think this is correct, though I personally don't see a point playing him on the fourth line, I'd rather send him down after 5 games.

I am ok with 4th line in a 5 game trial if it is wrapped with a 2nd PP unit bow.

That would give him a chance to prove his 2 way play plus an option to flash a bit 5 V 4

Dennis Beyak was saying on the Rona Roundtable with Rick Ralph ( the add is free boys ) that he thinks if Sheifele is on the 4th line that he would expect to see him be bumped up a few times during the game to give him an opportunity / see what he may do.

This makes sense to me , he has to get some better quality minutes and see if any offensive chances occur or maybe even produce some points.

I would be very surprised if we don't see some injuries , and the roster will be pretty fluid for the first few weeks I believe. In Mark's case he offers some flexibility , C/RW can me moved up or down the lines , so I would imagine he gets his 5 games in , maybe in a total of 8 or so games and see if there are injuries that influence roster decisions , and then go from there.

Great. 5 minutes a night with Thorburn and Peluso. Talk about a setup for success - better make some room for that Calder trophy on your mantle, Mark!

The benefits of him on the 4th line are...
Groin pulls are gonna happen.
Not enough time to find chemistry.
We don't know if Welly can log the kind of minutes that Kane and Olli will.

I thought Noel said Scheifele was on the 1st line with Slater.

I thought Noel said Scheifele was on the 1st line with Slater.

Noel often asks the media who is the 1st , 2nd, 3rd , 4th line? Well he mentioned Peluso multiple times as possibly contributing on the 4th line , playing real minutes not 2 to 3 .... so Claude , you like to have fun , but you know , we know Of course 2a and 2b are more what I see ....

 

[meedle]

I'm sure we will see all teams roll 4 lines alot throughout the season. It's alot of games in a short time.

hahah ya plus he specifically uses the lines differently and gives them very different time allotments

I did find it funny when he called the Slater line top line

 

[Che vy Teemuchuk]

Interesting points here about use of Scheifele. If he does stay up for his 5 games, it could be good to log ~10 minutes with old GST, plus replace Welly for a handful of shifts with Kane & Olli. Plus work the 2nd pp.

First pp = Olli & Buff on point with LLW?

2nd pp = Scheif, Kane, & Welly with Enstrom & Postma/Clitsome?

Then Noel can roll out the rested Cossacks, Stuie & Hainsey when they get back to even strength?

I'd be curious to see how this would work for 5 games.

So that must mean they have Slater centering the 3rd?

Like: Ponikarovsky-Slater-Burmistrov ?

Interesting.

This would be a smart idea.

Again I just saw Pavelec walking to the rink with the call ups. How does he not have his own place? Also, how do I put this.... He has a giant booty! Not the most lean guy

 

[HannuJ]

please please please play Scheifele w/Wheeler. hate Wheeler's linemates. not great utilization of the team's best player

Sumo-style puck stopping.

2nd heaviest goalie in the league!!

I think you're on an island with that opinion.

The line has obvious chemistry and Scheifele isn't better than Ladd or Little currently.
